I don't know the exact times for a 150 race or race to eleven but I know most pro events are scheduled around 2-4hr blocks so I'll just start there with a race to 11 9 ball.
Each player gets 90 minutes (allows for a 3hr 9 ball match), when their time runs out they lose 1 rack and another rack for each 5 or 10 minutes over.
(one note on 9 ball events, lots of time is spent during the racking issue of the show so that would have to be adressed right away, probably rack your own and rack'em as quick as possible)
14.1 to 150 yeah can go slow sometimes so we'll say 2hrs each on the clock and 1o or 20 points added to opponent score for running out and another 10 or 20 balls per 5 or 10 minutes over.
It wouldn't take long to get fair time frames set in place.
We don't want it to dominate the matches it's just meant to help prevent the all out slow or stall matches. 1 match can crush an entire event chart wise and spectator wise. This would mostly be a precaution and I don't think it would not be hard to try.
